AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
410 AM EST MON JAN 31 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL PROVIDE COLD AND DRY CONDITIONS TODAY
THROUGH TONIGHT. A WARM FRONT WILL DEVELOP SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND
TUESDAY...ALLOWING LIGHT TO OCCASIONALLY MODERATE SNOW TO DEVELOP
ACROSS THE AREA. ANOTHER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK EAST
ALONG THE SOUTHERN COASTAL WATERS WEDNESDAY BRINGING ANOTHER
SIGNIFICANT ROUND OF WINTRY PRECIPITATION. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
SETTLE ACROSS THE AREA IN WAKE OF THE DEPARTING LOW WITH COLD
CONDITIONS THURSDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER COASTAL STORM MAY AFFECT
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO BUILD FROM SOUTHEASTERN CANADA.
H925 TEMPERATURES FROM -11 TO -13 CELSIUS WITH MIXING NEAR THAT
LEVEL SUPPORTS HIGHS IN THE UPPER TEENS AND 20S ACROSS MUCH OF
THE AREA. WILL NOTE SOME INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS THIS AFTERNOON DUE
PROGRESSIVE W-E FLOW ALOFT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
TONIGHT...
CLOUDS CONTINUE TO LOWER AND THICKEN AS A WARM FRONT BEGINS TO
DEVELOP SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. INCREASING WARM AIR ADVECTION AND H85
FRONTOGENETIC FORCING IS EXPECTED TO THE NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT.
NOTING THE ADVANCEMENT OF H925-H85 25-30 KT JETS PROVIDING
INCREASING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AND LIFT APPROACHING 12Z
TUESDAY. IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME FOR THE LOWER LEVELS TO MOISTEN BUT
SHOULD NOTE SOME LIGHT SNOW OF FLURRIES BREAKING OUT ACROSS
CONNECTICUT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND WESTERN RHODE ISLAND LATE.

TUESDAY...
SHOULD NOTE LIGHT SNOW OVERSPREADING THE AREA BY THE MORNING
COMMUTE ACROSS THE WEST AND BY LATE MORNING ACROSS THE EAST...
PERHAPS BRIEFLY MODERATE AT TIMES MIDDAY THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
THERMAL PROFILES REMAIN COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SNOW ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA AS WARM AIR ADVECTION CONTINUES VIA H925-H85
SOUTHWESTERLY JET MAXIMA. DO NOTE DECENT OMEGA...BUT GENERALLY
BELOW  THE SNOW GROWTH REGION ON THE ORDER OF 5 TO 10 MICROBARS
PER SECOND ON THE 00Z GFS...10 TO 15 MICROBARS ACCORDING TO THE MORE
PROLIFIC 00Z NAM. PREFERRED THE 00Z GFS SOLUTION AS THE 00Z NAM
MASS FIELDS DID NOT MAKE QUITE QUITE AS MUCH SENSE IN TERMS OF
QPF AMOUNTS.

LIQUID QPF AMOUNTS VARY FROM 0.25 TO 0.40 INCH ON THE 00Z GFS AND
0.30 TO 0.50 INCH ACCORDING TO THE 00Z NAM. GENERALLY LOOKING AT A
12-15 TO 1 SNOW TO LIQUID RATIO WHICH SHOULD BRING WIDESPREAD 3 TO 6
INCH SNOW AMOUNTS ACROSS THE AREA. BEST LIFT IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH
SOON AFTER 00Z BUT PICK UP AGAIN LATE TUESDAY NIGHT ACROSS WESTERN
NEW ENGLAND.

PER COLLABORATION WITH UPSTREAM OFFICES AND BASED ON MEETING WINTER
WEATHER CRITERIA...HAVE ELECTED TO ISSUE A WINTER STORM WATCH
TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOR MUCH OF THE AREA...VERSUS AN
ADVISORY TUESDAY AND WATCH FOR WEDNESDAY...AS THE LULL IN
PRECIPITATION INTENSITY TUESDAY NIGHT IS EXPECTED TO BE BRIEF.
THE WATCH WILL LIKELY BE EXPANDED NORTH INTO NEW HAMPSHIRE THIS
AFTERNOON...GIVEN CRITERIA THERE IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE MET THERE
UNTIL LATE 4TH OR 5TH PERIOD. WILL HIGHLIGHT POTENTIAL EFFECTS AND
NOTE IMPACTS OF THIS TWO PART SYSTEM IN THE WATCH STATEMENT. THE
WATCH MAY BE EXPANDED CLOSER TO THE SOUTH COAST AS WELL...ALTHOUGH
WARMER AIR IS EXPECTED TO CUT DOWN ON SNOW AND ICE ACCUMULATIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
TUESDAY NIGHT-WEDNESDAY...
THE FIRST PHASE OF THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD WIND DOWN BY THE EVENING
AS THE ASSOCIATED LIFT MOVES OFF TO THE EAST.  DEEP MOISTURE AND
WEAK LIFT REMAIN THROUGH THE EVENING.  FORECAST DATA FROM THE
DENDRITE LEVEL OF THE ATMOSPHERE SHOWS INCREASING LIFT ONCE AGAIN
AFTER 06Z ESPECIALLY IN CT AND WESTERN MA. THIS WILL BE DRIVEN
DYNAMICALLY BY THE APPROACH OF THE MAIN SYSTEM FROM THE OHIO VALLEY
AND ITS SUPPORTING 150 KNOT UPPER JET.  THIS WILL ALSO BE DRIVEN
ISENTROPICALLY BY A STRONG 60-70 KNOT LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY JET RIDING
UP OVER THE COLDER AIR AT THE SURFACE. THIS CONTINUES INTO AT LEAST
THE EARLY AFTERNOON BEFORE DIMINISHING TOWARD EVENING.  THE STRONG
LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL ALSO TRANSPORT ABOVE-FREEZING AIR OVER THE TOP
OF THE COLDER SURFACE AIR...MELTING THE FALLING PRECIPITATION AND
TURNING IT INTO SLEET OR FREEZING RAIN. SURFACE TEMPS THEN CLIMB
ABOVE FREEZING WEDNESDAY IN PARTS OF RI AND SOUTHEAST MASS...WHICH
WOULD FAVOR RAIN IN THOSE AREAS.

ALL MODELS BRING LOW PRESSURE...EITHER THE PRIMARY OR /MORE LIKELY/
A COASTAL REDEVELOPMENT...SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
AND EVENING.  THE GGEM WAS FARTHEST NORTH AND THE NAM FARTHEST SOUTH
WITH THE STORM TRACK. WE FAVORED THE GFS BUT WITH SOME MODULATION
FROM THE NAM.

WE WILL BACK POPS OFF DURING EARLY TUESDAY NIGHT...THEN RETURN TO
CATEGORICAL POPS AFTER MIDNIGHT AND KEEP THEM GOING THROUGH MOST OF
WEDNESDAY.  PRECIP TYPES ARE BASED ON THE GFS THERMAL PROFILES.
THIS FAVORS A CHANGE TO FREEZING RAIN/SLEET SOUTH OF THE MASS PIKE
LATE TUESDAY NIGHT...THEN WEDNESDAY FREEZING RAIN INLAND AND RAIN IN
PARTS OF RI AND SOUTHEAST MASS.

THE SURFACE LOW MOVES NORTHEAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND PASSES SOUTH OF
NOVA SCOTIA.  THE UPPER TROF LINGERS OVER NEW ENGLAND DURING THE
NIGHT...SO WE SLOWLY BROUGHT POPS DOWN TO CHANCE LEVELS AFTER
MIDNIGHT.

THURSDAY-FRIDAY...
THE LAST NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
THURSDAY MORNING.  SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS IN.  SO WE
WOULD EXPECT A FEW LINGERING CLOUDS AND SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS
MAINLY IN EASTERN MASS THURSDAY MORNING.  OTHERWISE CLEARING AND DRY
WEATHER FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.  THE AIRMASS INITIALLY COOLS
THURSDAY WITH 925 MB TEMPS AT -10C TO -12C SUPPORTING MAX TEMPS IN
THE 20S.  THE AIRMASS THEN MODERATES FRIDAY WITH 925 MB TEMPS -6C TO
-8C SUPPORTING MAX TEMPS IN THE UPPER 20S TO MID 30S.

SATURDAY...
NO REST FOR THE WEARY.  ANOTHER SYSTEM BURSTS OUT OF THE GULF OF
MEXICO AND UP THE EAST COAST.  BOTH THE GFS AND EC OPERATIONAL RUNS
AGREE ON THE SURFACE LOW MOVING PAST NEW ENGLAND SATURDAY
AFTERNOON/EARLY NIGHT WITH A FEW DIFFERENCES IN TRACK AND TIMING
DETAILS.  THE GFS IS FASTEST AND DEEPEST...AND SHOWS A PRESSURE FALL
OF 24 MB PER 24 HOURS FROM 12Z SAT TO 12Z SUN.  BOTH GFS AND ECMWF
THERMAL PROFILES WOULD BE MAINLY SNOW...WITH POTENTIAL FOR RAIN/SNOW
MIX ACROSS THE ISLANDS.

OF COURSE...THIS IS A DAY SIX FORECAST SO EXPECT CHANGES AS THE
EVENT GETS CLOSER. FOR NOW THERE SEEMS ENOUGH AGREEMENT ON A SYSTEM
CLOSE ENOUGH TO AFFECT MOST OR ALL OF OUR AREA SO THAT WE WILL
MENTION CHANCE POPS IN ALL OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  HIGHEST POPS
WILL BE ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS AND LOWEST POPS AT CHESHIRE AND
FRANKLIN CO/S.  WE WILL USE A BLEND OF GFS AND ECMWF THERMAL
PROFILES TO GENERATE P-TYPES.

SUNDAY...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVERHEAD WITH MARGINAL COOLING OF THE AIRMASS.
EXPECT FAIR/DRY WEATHER WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES.
